Ancient Humans Might Have Settled in South America over 18,000 Years Ago After Discovery of Chromosomes [sic]

...The new research was published in the journal PLOS ONE on Wednesday, August 17, wherein researchers found evidence of human Y chromosome sequences from an unidentified group in South America.
The findings reportedly bring promising results that can potentially solve the mystery behind the missing genetic link of the human migration into South America.
In recent years, multiple studies have continued to conduct the genetic mapping of human migration since our ancient ancestors left the continent of Africa around 60,000 years ago. From there, our predecessors expanded their presence and settlements across the six continents of the world...
Amongst these research, three studies published in the journals Cell, Science, and Science Advances in November 2018 show there is evidence of several human migrations into South America in ancient times.
The data is previously unknown to science and reportedly aims to figure out the story of how people settled and thrived in the high-elevated lands of the Andes.
The 2018 research also challenges the conventional notion that the migration of humans in the sub-continent was a result of a literal downward direction around 13,000 years ago.
Instead, the studies revealed that ancestors of Native Americans move to the Americas from Siberia as early as between 17,000 and 14,000 years ago, crossing the land bridge connecting Siberia and Alaska. This group of ancient humans was a product of the people living in Siberia around 25,000 years ago.
The previous papers have not emphasized on any human Y chromosomes, unlike the new study. However, they highlight the migration toward South America did not occur only once which was a part of a series of movement toward the Andes.

It has been proven that carbon dating doesn’t work very well, what do you expect when idiots memorize books written by other idiots and then think that they are experts.

Oh, no, misplaced modifiers deserve flaying, if not flogging. No excuses.
Unless, of course, you discovered chromosomes 18,000 years ago.

The editor who wrote this headline needs to be flayed alive So true. It leads one to think that chromosomes were discovered 18,000 years ago, causing the settlement of South America.

Chromosomes are nothing more than white heteropatriarchy supremacy keeping trans and BIPOC people down. I heard it from colleges...

Sooo...
Ancient humans had to discover chromosomes before they could “gentrify” South America?

Yep, I remember when a mastadon tusk was found in Lake Grapevine, West of DFW Airport.
Heck when they were digging tank holes at dfw, they found remains of several creatures. Not that old at all.

Misplaced modifiers deserve flaying if 1) the writer is supposed to a pro 2) he screwed up this egregiously and 3) it got published.
